Kitchen Finished!

Ohmigosh, y'all. They have completed the kitchen!! Big cleaning going on today and then all that's left is to seal the backsplash next Tuesday. And! It's just occurred to me that they always leave at 3:30 on Fridays (lucky them!), so it's less than two hours to completion. Whee!!!!!!!!

It took a total of four weeks, which is fabulous, considering the scope of the project-  an extra-large kitchen, tiling the foyer, and painting/tiling the breakfast/utility/dining rooms. Of course we'll have the walkthrough items, but those can hopefully be taken care of while we're using the kitchen. Best of all, I don't have to get up early anymore to move the cars out of the driveway and unlock the back door and the garage, etc.

The poor cats won't be stuck hiding out in the bedroom either. They have food and water and a box in there, so they aren't suffering of anything but cabin fever, but still. Kiptyn was doing one of those "cats gone wild" moments in the condensed space of the master bedroom the other day and jumped right into his water bowl. 'Twas hilarity.

So YAY!! Kitchen!!

Well, I finally watched the new Match Game. First question on the new show (one of my very favorite TV shows as a kid) was "Costco opened a new adult section. They're giving out free samples of blank."

The contestant's answer was "lotion," which no one matched; however, the show's judges allowed "lube" as a match (what the...????), so she got 4 matches!

I feel compelled to let the judges and people everywhere know that lotion and lube are not the same.

Alec Baldwin has a wireless mic, but also carries around the old style hand microphone. Very strange. Otherwise though, I love that it's back, and pretty much the same as it was. I am reminded of the great Gene Rayburn and all the hilarious celebs from the 70s. There were far too many to list, but remember Charles Nelson Reilly, Richard Dawson and Brett Somers? Fun.

Also watched the fabulous $100,000 Pyramid! Remember Dick Clark hosting (back when it was 10 or 20 thousand)? If I were to compete on a game show, that would be IT.
